  1. Leicester have 16 goals in their last 7 matches. City seems more vulnerable when the chances are happening at both ends. Of course, it's the final home match on 8 days rest.
  2. Hard Rock is what you would expect. Massive resort, restaurants were fine, plenty of pools and the beach never felt crowded. Casino won't remind you of Vegas but it's OK, and easy to avoid if you're not into that. We had a very spacious room, though it was a long walk to everything due to the size of the resort.
  3. Always thought he would be a stabilizing force that would help Shaka with in-game stuff. That obviously didn't work out well, but who knows if that was Horn's fault or was just an impossible task
  4. NY Daily News apparently fired Chris Sheridan, who wrote that Ben Simmons drunk column yesterday
  5. The pervy look on the dragon's face as J&D were about to get down almost saved that scene. It was sort of a wink to the audience that the show was being intentionally cheesy, at least that's what I'm going with
  6. I stand by my Bagdhad Bob opinion that The Process is over and it DID work. The Sixers put themselves in position to reach the NBA finals for several years. But a few bad moves (Okafor, Fultz) and some bad luck may unfortunately mean they never get past the second round before we have to burn it down and Process again. If you watched Joel this season you can see why he was worth the risk. He was going 40ish minutes a game as recently as three weeks ago and completely dominating. He's kept it up most of this year and really his whole career *when healthy. (big *, I know). It will piss me off if it turns out this has something to do with playing in the All Star Game. That's when this current issue first cropped up.
  7. Jorge Polanco hits for the cycle in Philly. First Twin since Cuddyer in 2009
  8. Electric Shoes was funny af even though you knew exactly where it was going. Weekend Update was shockingly bad other than Janine. Hope they finish the season strong, I think the cast in general is pretty solid right now.
  9. $25 sent to Huckleberry. Maybe next year we can just pay right after the draft since the formula knows all ☹️
  10. Segura, Harper and Realmuto all easy outs in their first ABs. Game is 1-1 after two innings, Nola 3 BB already
  11. Tracklist A1 –Juice Newton Queen Of Hearts A2 –Rick Springfield Jessie's Girl A3 –Billy Squier The Stroke A4 –Pat Benatar Fire And Ice A5 –Climax Blues Band I Love You A6 –Gary Wright Really Wanna Know You A7 –Manhattan Transfer Boy From New York City B1 –Hall & Oates You Make My Dreams B2 –Greg Kihn Band The Breakup Song B3 –Pablo Cruise Cool Love B4 –Air Supply The One That You Love B5 –Alan Parsons Project, The Time B6 –Stars On Stars On 45 (Medley I) B7 –Oak Ridge Boys Elvira
  12. That and some other details from the Vox review on the previous page. There is all kinds of reasonable doubt as to convicting Adnan, but it's not as much of a reach as the HBO/Serial shows would indicate.
  13. I could have three teams in the Final Four and still be miles from winning this thing. You gotta get a 7 seed or higher correct, probably more than one of those in reality. Even the high seeds I liked ended up bombing out, so I was doomed before we even drafted
  14. You'd be guaranteeing a loss with one of your prime picks. Only my second time doing this, but I don't think anyone has taken both sides of a matchup other than maybe 1-4 seeds against their much lower opponents. When you're picking 5 thru 12 seeds, you probably want all of them to have a shot to win at least one game. The 13-16s are such long shots it doesn't hurt much when they lose.
  15. Forgot how this deal makes you root against upsets, other than your own. Can't believe Minny was the last 7-10 team on the board in our draft. I was about to select but of course Huck took them with no other middle seeds remaining. No idea how they've played Mich St but at least they're familiar with them...could rack up 20 points on Saturday
  16. ^ I was not in last year but that's a great point ^ - everyone be sure to keep checking the thread all the way through the Final Four, so you can see who won and where to send (or receive 😁) the funds
  17. We're definitely getting him next time. He loves the Eagles so much he wants to make sure he's free all of October and November to use his season tickets.
  18. $25 works for me. I seem to recall last time I was in, the guy with a bunch of 1-2 seeds won it. But he also had an 8 that made a long run so that was big. I think I would have won if Gonzaga had beaten UNC in the final which made that game even harder to swallow
  19. COLGATE And I'm out, thanks and good luck y'all @Huckleberry
  20. Saint Louis Univ. @HornOnTheBayou
  21. I'm out until around 6 pm CT now.
